Q: What was the objective of UNICEF when it was created in 1946?

COMPREHENSION READING:

The United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF), a special program of the United Nations, is

devoted to aiding national efforts to improve the health, nutrition, education, and general

welfare of children. UNICEF was created in 1946 to provide relief to children in countries

devastated by World War II. After 1950, the fund directed its efforts toward general

programs for the improvement of children’s welfare, particularly in less-developed countries

and in various emergency situations. The organization’s broader mission was reflected in the

name it adopted in 1953, the United Nations Children’s Fund. UNICEF was awarded the

Nobel Prize for Peace in 1965. It is headquartered in New York City. UNICEF has

concentrated much of its effort in areas in which relatively small expenditures can have a

significant impact on the lives of the most disadvantaged children such as the prevention and

treatment of diseases. In keeping with this strategy, UNICEF supports immunization

programs for childhood diseases and programs to prevent the spread of HIV/AIDS; it also

provides funding for health services, educational facilities, and other welfare services. Since

1996, UNICEF programs have been guided by the Convention on the Rights of the Child

(1989), which affirms the right of all children to “the enjoyment of the highest attainable

standard of health and to facilities for the treatment of illness and rehabilitation of health”.

UNICEF’s activities are financed by both government and private contributions.

a)

To win the Nobel Prize for Peace.

b)

To improve the health, nutrition, education of nations.

c)

To devote to the general welfare of children all over the world.

d)

To help children in countries devastated by World War II.
